Choshuenco, Village in Panguipulli commune, Chile.

Choshuenco is a village (aldea) on the eastern edge of Panguipulli Lake in Panguipulli commune, 4 km south of the 203-CH route from Lanco to Huahum Pass and 33 km west of the Argentine border. It is served by Molco Airport, and the abandoned steamer Vapor Enco rests on its beach.

The village formed as a settlement near the Argentine border and grew as a connection point between different areas of the region. Route 203-CH passes through the area, linking remote locations across southern Chile.

Choshuenco grew from Mapuche settlement and logging colonists who arrived from the 1940s to work the Valdivian forest, timber being the village's main employer for decades. The abandoned steamer Vapor Enco rests on the beach; it carried up to 150 people across Panguipulli Lake three times a week until the road to Panguipulli opened.

Choshuenco lies 4 km south of the 203-CH route from Lanco to Huahum Pass and 33 km west of the Argentine border; Molco Airport serves the village. Mobile coverage is limited to 3G from Entel and Movistar, 2G from Claro, and roaming for WOM and Virgin Mobile. The Mocho-Choshuenco hazard map classes the village as moderate danger from lahars.

The village sits geographically close to the border with Argentina, making it a natural crossing point for people traveling between both countries. This border location continues to shape local economic activity and daily life in the settlement.
